the air in your stomach may or may not be associated with the morphine. I was taking morphine before(haven't since June last yr) and use to need to burp a lot from time to time. It still hapens now though. In my case I don't think its gas because my stomach isn't upset. My theory is that when they put the trach in it lefttmy throat a little irregular inside and it causes me to swallow a little air each time I swallow. It builds up after awhile. I notice that after I burp I need to take some deep breaths and I think the air in my stomach has risen to the top and was impinging on my lungs and so I need to breath deeply afterwards. Just a theory but there are a number of factors that lend to it. Dylan c5/6 sci, 21 yrs

Morphine is a very productive drug, but that is one of the negative effects. Best Wishes In a message dated 3/25/2008 1:42:40 P.M.
